    About tyres...

    Palagi kong napapanood/napapansin sa car reviews na "road noise probably due to econo tyres"

    If bibili ako ng bagong tyres for my car, paano ko malalaman na "econo" yung binibili ko?

    Don’t worry too much about it. There are good tires at a decent & affordable price. In fact, there are more expensive sport tires that are noisy too.

    If you want decent tires on a budget, check out any of the Indonesian brands - GT, Achilles, Accelera, Neuton.

    Econo-tires are tires designed for long mileage so they typically have harder rubber that wears down more slowly.

    Goodyear Duraplus, Michelin Energy XM2+, Dunlop Enasave - the name typicay hints at economy rather than grip or handling.

    I've written about this extensively here:

    Just to add, a good place to start is the tread pattern. If it is advertised as a quiet or touring tire, it will most likely be quieter. Touring tires usually start from rim sizes 15 and up.

    Econo? I dont think tyre manufacturers used this phrase. They used "eco" or maybe economical? Im not sure.

    "Budget tires" is more of a generalizarion that they are more affordable.

    Older small cars had alot of road noise because lesser insulation in the wheel wells.

    Low rolling resistance tires with low tyre pressures will be noisy.
